Version 3 seems ok

I spent 15 minutes looking for an option to let me hide the sidebar. No luck. It’s an incredible waste of screen real estate. Large black column with nothing in it except some menu items at the top. With version 2 I could minimize the width of the window to just the timeline and then I set all of my other apps (Safari, Omnofocus, etc.) to use the remainder. But now, when I click on Tweetbot it overwrite those apps - and I am not going to reduce their screen size to accomodate a useless column. Really should be a means to minimze that column and turn it into an icon that can be expanded when needed (or I can just use the menu). So, I like Tweetbot - but really do not like this specific of the new design.

[UPDATE]By accident I figured out how to reduce the sidebar. Now I am back to where it was for the previosu version. So far, this version seems ok but, I don't really yet appreciate any differences. Raising my rating by one star now that I know how to get rid of that wasted space.

#3 lives up to its predecessors

My guess is that you wouldn’t be reading this if you already weren’t a user of previous versions of Tweetbot. But if you aren’t familiar with it just get it immediately. Just get it. Those who are familiar with its predecessors will be reading reviews here to find out if it is worth $10 to move from 2 to version 3. First of all, it would be worht it even if there were no changes. How often do you use Tweetbot? If you think of speding 10 cents a day it pays for itself in a few months.

But it has a great new layout for the Mac. Previous versions tended to use space the way that you would on an app for a phone. Tweetbot 3 gives improves its use of space for the desktop/laptop so that more information and possibilies are at your finger tips without confusion or clutter. After only a few minuties I saw my various feeds in a new light. Obviously, I haven’t tested much. But there is a clear benefit immediately.

Authorizing any new Twitter client is a pain. Tweetbot handles that well, but do be prepared to deal with that when you set up a new client.

As “Upgrades” Go It’s OK

Over the years I’ve always felt like Tapbots have been a premiere developer. I bought Tweetbot for Mac back when it was insanely expensive and hevn’t looked back. With this “upgrade” I’m not so sure. It’s not the app is bad. What it has ended up doing is simplifying their app and dropping a lot of the functionality and control that I loved about Tweetbot for Mac 2 that I love. The navigation bar on the side is faily large and I can not find a way to make it any smaller than it is by default (I prefered the side bar in the previous version with icons only but now I get icons and text and it takes up a lot of space). Gone is the ability to show multiple lists next to each other unless I open a new window which includes the very large side navigation bar.

On the plus side I can now use the arrow keys to move between images when a post contains more than one image but I’d gladly give that up for multiple columns and the ability to make the side navigation bar smaller.

On the whole I think I’d recommend Twitteriffic over this but definitely Tweetbot for Mac 2 over version 3.

You can resize the navigation bar by dragging on the divider, please read more info about it at https://tapbots.com/tweetbot/mac/tips/. You can also drag multiple lists to different columns, please see above tips page for more info on that too.
